Operator's Guide

Our First Words to the Owner/Operator

This Operator’s Guide is an essential part of your

Johnson

outboard. It contains pertinent information

which, if followed, will provide you with a thorough understanding needed for proper operation, mainte-

nance, care and above all safety!

The safety section of this Guide comes first because it is our first priority and it should be yours too. It is

strongly recommended that you read this Guide from front cover to rear cover. Following this recommen-

dation will assure the completeness of the information that is essential to your safety, the safety of any

passengers and other boaters. An Operator’s Readiness Test has been prepared on the last page of this

Guide.

Be safe! All passengers should be familiar with the proper operation of your boat and

Johnson

outboard.

Be certain they fully understand and respect the controls and operation. Each operator is responsible for

the safety of all passengers and other boaters. Please make safety your first priority and complete a boat-

ing safety course through your local Coast Guard, Power Squadron, Red Cross or State Boating Law

Agency.

The pleasures of owning and operating a

Johnson

outboard can be significant. We strongly believe the

rewards for following our recommendations will be worthwhile. Remember that YOU are the key to safety.

Good safety practices not only protect you but also protect the people around you.

Having fun is what it’s all about and, with your cooperation, the pertinent information in this Guide can en-

sure a safe and enjoyable experience.

Enjoy the great outdoors on the water...

WARNING

Be careful! Human error is caused by many factors: carelessness, fatigue, overload, preoccu-

pation, unfamiliarity of operator with the product, drugs and alcohol to name a few. Damage to

your boat and outboard can be fixed in a short period of time, but injury or death, has a lasting

effect.

For your safety and the safety of others, read this Guide from cover to cover and follow all

safety warnings and recommendations. Do not disregard any of the safety precautions and

instructions.

Anyone operating your boat should first read and understand this Guide before they operate

your boat and motor.

GENERAL INFORMATION

SAFETY — THE RIGHT PLACE TO GET

STARTED

This Operator’s Guide contains essential informa-

tion to help prevent personal injury and damage to

equipment. It will acquaint the operator and pas-

sengers with the

Evinrude/Johnson

outboard and

its controls, operation, maintenance and boating

safety measures. Make sure all operators read, un-

derstand and follow the contents. This Guide

should be kept in a waterproof bag with the product

at all times during operation. If the product owner-

ship is transferred, this Guide should be forwarded

to the subsequent owners.

This Operator’s Guide uses the following signal

words identifying important safety messages.

These safety alert signal words mean:

ATTENTION!

BECOME ALERT!

YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED!

IMPORTANT: Identifies information that will help

prevent damage to machinery and appears next to

information that controls correct assembly and op-

eration of the product.

Although the mere reading of such information

does not eliminate the hazard, the understanding

and application of the information will promote the

correct use of your outboard engine.

A responsible, educated boater will fully appreciate

the pleasures of boating and will be a safe boater.

Boating Safety Classes are conducted by the U.S.

Coast Guard Auxiliary, the U.S. Power Squadron

and some Red Cross Chapters. For information

about classes, call toll free 1-800-336-BOAT. For

additional information about boating safety and reg-

ulations call: U.S. Coast Guard Boating Safety Hot-

line 1-800-368-5647. Outside North America

please contact your DEALER or distributor for de-

tails about boating safety.

SAFETY MEASURES — General

SAFETY MEASURES — Operation

DANGER

Indicates an imminently hazardous situa-

tion which, if not avoided, WILL result in

death or serious injury.

WARNING

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation

which, if not avoided, CAN result in severe

injury or death.

CAUTION

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation

which, if not avoided, MAY result in minor or

moderate personal injury or property dam-

age. It also may be used to alert against

unsafe practices.

To fully appreciate the pleasures, enjoyment

and excitement of boating there are some ba-

sic rules that should be observed and followed

by any boater. Some rules may be new to you

and others may be common sense or obvi-

ous... irrespective, take them seriously! Fail-

ure to follow this safety information and safe

boating rules could result in injury to you, your

passengers or other water users.

Become completely familiar with the control

and operation of your boat and motor before

embarking on your first trip or taking on a pas-

senger(s). If you have not had the opportunity

to do so with your DEALER, practice driving in

a suitable area and feel the response of each

control. Be familiar with all controls before ap-

plying the throttle above idle speed. As the op-

erator, you are in control and responsible for

safe operation.

Be sure at least one of your passengers

knows how to handle your boat in case of an

emergency.

All passengers should know the location of

emergency equipment and how to use it.

All safety equipment and personal flotation

devices must be in good condition and suit-

able for your type of boat. Always comply with

the regulations that apply to your boat.

Contact with rotating propeller is likely to result

in serious injury or death. Do not allow anyone

near a propeller, even when the engine is off.

Propeller blades can be sharp and can contin-

ue to turn even after the engine is shut off. Al-

ways shut off the engine when boat is near

people in the water.

General Information - 3

SAFETY MEASURES — Installation and

Maintenance

Outboard Installation

Maintenance

Whenever running the engine, assure there is

proper ventilation to avoid the accumulation of

carbon monoxide (CO), which is odorless, col-

orless, and tasteless, and can lead to uncon-

sciousness, brain damage, or death if inhaled

in sufficient concentrations. CO accumulation

can occur while docked, anchored, or under-

way, and in many confined areas such as the

boat cabin, cockpit, swim platform, and heads.

It can be worsened or caused by weather,

mooring and operating conditions, and other

boats. Avoid exhaust fumes from your engine

or other boats, provide proper ventilation, shut

off your engine when not needed, and be

aware of the risk of backdrafting and condi-

tions that create CO accumulation. In high

concentrations, CO can be fatal within min-

utes. Lower concentrations are just as lethal

over long periods of time.

Proceed with caution and at very low speed in

shallow water. Grounding or abrupt stops may

result in personal injury or property damage.

Also be alert for debris and objects in the wa-

ter.

Be familiar with the waters you are operating

in. The gearcase of this outboard extends be-

low the water surface and could potentially

come in contact with underwater obstructions.

Contact with underwater obstructions may re-

sult in loss of control and personal injury.

Avoid standing up or shifting weight suddenly

in light weight boats.

Keep your passengers seated in seats. The

boat’s bow, gunwale, transom and seat backs

are not intended for use as seats.

Insist on the use of personal flotation devices,

approved by the U.S. Coast Guard, by all pas-

sengers when boating conditions are hazard-

ous, and by children and nonswimmers at all

times.

Respect no wake zones, rights of other water

users and the environment. As the "skipper"

and owner of a boat you are responsible for

damage to other boats caused by the wake of

your boat. Allow no one to throw refuse over-

board.

Know the marine traffic laws and obey them.

Remember, gasoline fumes are flammable

and explosive. Always adhere to the fueling

procedure contained in this Operator’s Guide

and those given to you by the fueling station.

Always verify fuel level before use and during

the ride. Apply the principle of 1/3 fuel to des-

tination, 1/3 back and 1/3 reserve fuel supply.

Do not carry spare fuel or flammable liquids in

any storage or engine compartments.

Do not operate your boat if you are under the

influence of drugs or alcohol.

High performance boats have a high power-

to-weight ratio. If you are not experienced in

the operation of a high performance boat, do

not attempt to operate one at, or near, its top

speed until you have gained that experience.

For more information, see your

Evinrude/

Johnson

DEALER for a copy of Introduction

to High Performance Boating, P/N 335763.

The outboard must be correctly installed. Fail-

ure to correctly install the outboard could re-

sult in serious injury, death or property

damage. We strongly recommend that your

DEALER install your outboard to ensure prop-

er installation.

Do not overpower your boat by using an en-

gine that exceeds the horsepower indicated

on the boat’s capacity plate. Overpowering

could result in loss of control. If your boat has

no capacity plate, contact your DEALER or the

boat’s manufacturer.

When replacement parts are required, use

Evinrude®/Johnson® Genuine Parts

or parts

with equivalent characteristics, including type,

strength and material. Using substandard

parts could result in injury or product malfunc-

tion.

Only perform service procedures which are

detailed in this Operator’s Guide. Attempting

to perform maintenance or repair on your out-

board if you are not familiar with the correct

service and safety procedure could cause per-

sonal injury or death. Further information can

be obtained from your authorized

Evinrude/

Johnson

DEALER. In many instances proper

tools and training are required for certain ser-

vice or repair procedures.

Maintain your boat and engine in top condition

at all times. Adhere to the Engine Mainte-

nance and Inspection Schedule.

Operate your boat and outboard prudently

and have fun. Do not forget that all persons

must assist other boaters in case of emergen-

cy.

Prevent injury from contact with rotating pro-

peller; remove propeller before flushing or be-

fore performing any maintenance.

Emergency Stop/Key Switch

A combination emergency stop switch and key

switch is a feature of

Evinrude/Johnson

prewired

remote controls and all

Evinrude/Johnson

control

wiring kits. Use of the emergency stop feature is

highly recommended on all boats.

Connect the clip to the emergency stop/key switch.

Snap the lanyard to a secure place on the opera-

tor’s clothing or life vest — not where it might tear

away instead of activating the stop switch. Discon-

necting the clip and lanyard will stop the engine and

prevent the boat from becoming a runaway if the

driver moves beyond the range of the lanyard. If the

lanyard is too long, it can be shortened by knotting

or looping it. DO NOT cut and retie the lanyard. In

an emergency situation, the engine can be started

without the clip in place. Follow the normal starting

procedure. Reinstall a clip as soon as possible.

1. Clip

2. Emergency stop / key switch

3. Lanyard

WARNING

Avoid knocking or pulling the clip off the

stop switch during normal boating. Avoid

bumping the key if operating without the

clip on the switch. The resulting unexpected

loss of forward motion can throw occupants

forward, causing injury.

Your emergency stop switch can be effec-

tive only when in good working condition.

At each outing, inspect clip and lanyard for

cuts, breaks, or wear. Replace worn or dam-

aged parts.

Keep the lanyard free from obstructions and

entanglements.

At each outing, test the system’s operation.

With the engine running, remove the clip

from the switch by pulling the lanyard. If the

engine does not stop running, see your

DEALER.

16 - Engine Monitoring

ENGINE MONITORING

IMPORTANT: Your outboard must be equipped

with the

System Check

® (or equivalent) engine

monitor. Operating your outboard without the

Sys-

tem Check

(or equivalent) engine monitor will void

your warranty for failures related to the functions

monitored on your engine.

When you turn the key switch ON, the

System

Check

engine monitor horn performs a self-test by

sounding a 1/2-second beep. The gauge self-tests

by turning the warning lights on, then off in se-

quence. During engine start-up, pause with the key

switch in the ON position to observe the horn and

gauge perform the self-test. If the self-test does not

happen as stated, see your DEALER.

The

System Check

engine monitor alerts the oper-

ator with a 10-second beep of the horn and a warn-

ing light on the gauge when certain engine

problems occur. The appropriate warning light

will stay on until the key switch is turned OFF.

"NO OIL"

There is an oil delivery problem. Serious engine

damage can occur quickly. If you must operate your

outboard to reach safety, do not exceed 1500 RPM.

If you want to continue to operate your outboard be-

fore repairs are made, check the oil tank for con-

tents and condition.

If the oil tank is empty;

• Add the recommended oil to the oil tank; and

• Add oil to the fuel tank at the correct ratio until the

oil system can be purged of air.

IMPORTANT: Serious engine damage will occur if

you operate the engine after the oil supply is ex-

hausted. Never run the oil tank dry. If the tank is run

dry, you must purge the oil system of air. Refer to

Oil System.

If the oil tank is not empty, add oil to the fuel tank

at the correct ratio. Refer to Fuel and Oil.

Have your DEALER check the condition of your

outboard’s oil injection system. He will check for air

and oil leaks, damaged components or a clogged

oil filter. Your DEALER should verify oil supply be-

fore returning your outboard to normal operation.

"WATER TEMP" or HOT

The engine is overheating. Serious engine damage

can occur quickly.

If the engine is overheating, it will also limit engine

speed to 2500 RPM. This additional protection fea-

ture is referred to as

S.L.O.W.

™ If the engine was

running faster than 2500 RPM when the

S.L.O.W

system activated, it will shake noticeably.

IMPORTANT: Refer immediately to Engine Over-

heating

150 and 175 Models

"CHECK ENGINE" or "CHK ENG"

Fuel supply is being restricted. Reduce speed to

idle. If the warning light goes off as speed is re-

duced, operate at the reduced speed until you can:

Inspect all fuel system parts for kinks or blockage.

Clean or replace the fuel filter(s). Refer to Fuel Line

Filter.

IMPORTANT: If the warning light glows even at

idle, shut OFF the outboard and perform the tasks

listed above. If you cannot restore fuel flow, do not

run the outboard – see your DEALER.

"LOW OIL"

Oil in the oil tank is at “reserve” level (about 1/4 full).

Fill the oil tank with recommended oil as soon as

possible to avoid emptying the tank. Refer to Filling

the Oil Tank.

CAUTION

In the

S.L.O.W.

mode, the engine speed is

limited. Under certain conditions, the

engine’s limited speed may reduce maneu-

verability of your boat.

If the

S.L.O.W.

mode is activated and you

are unable to correct the problem, seek

assistance and/or return to safe harbor.

Serious engine damage, engine shutoff,

and/or reduced maneuverability may be

imminent.

Fuel and Oil - 17

FUEL AND OIL

FUEL

Your outboard is certified to operate on unleaded

automotive gasoline with an octane rating equal to

or higher than that specified in Minimum Octane

chart. When using gasoline that contains MTBE or

alcohol, follow these guidelines:

Using unleaded gasoline that contains methyl ter-

tiary butyl ether (MTBE) is acceptable ONLY if the

MTBE content does not exceed 15% by volume.

Using alcohol-extended fuels is acceptable ONLY if

the alcohol content does not exceed:

10% ethanol by volume; or

5% methanol with 5% cosolvents by volume

Minimum Octane

Your outboard has been designed to operate using

the above fuels; however, be aware of the follow-

ing:

The boat’s fuel system may have different require-

ments regarding the use of alcohol fuels. Refer to

the boat’s owner Guide.

Alcohol attracts and holds moisture that can cause

corrosion of metallic parts in the fuel system.

Alcohol blended fuel can cause engine perfor-

mance problems.

IMPORTANT: Always use fresh gasoline. Gasoline

will oxidize and weather; the result is loss of octane,

volatile compounds, and the production of gum and

varnish deposits which can damage the outboard.

OIL

Evinrude/Johnson

XD25 formula outboard oil is

recommended for your outboard. It contains a

richer additive package than other TC-W3 oils, min-

imizing carbon build-up and deposits on pistons

and bearing surfaces. It provides 25% greater de-

tergency than minimum TC-W3 requirements.

Evinrude/Johnson

brand oils are formulated to give

best engine performance while controlling piston

and combustion chamber deposits, providing supe-

rior lubrication and ensuring maximum spark plug

life.

Evinrude/Johnson

XD25 formula outboard oil is

not available, you must use an NMMA-certified TC-

W3 oil such as

Evinrude/Johnson

direct injection oil

Evinrude

biodegradable outboard oil.

IMPORTANT: Failure to follow this recommenda-

tion could void the engine warranty if a lubrication-

related failure occurs.

WARNING

Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly

explosive under certain conditions. Follow

the instructions in this section explicitly.

Improper handling of fuel could result in

property damage, serious injury, or death.

Always turn off the engine before fueling.

Never permit anyone other than an adult to

refill the fuel tank.

Do not fill the fuel tank all the way to the top,

or fuel may overflow when it expands due to

heating by the sun.

Remove portable fuel tanks from the boat

before fueling.

Always wipe off any fuel spillage.

Do not smoke, or allow open flames or

sparks, or use electrical devices such as

cellular phones in the vicinity of a fuel leak

or while fueling.

Always work in a well ventilated area.

Inside the U.S. 87 (R+M)/2 AKI

Outside the U.S. 90 RON

WARNING

Leaking fuel is a fire and explosion hazard.

All parts in the fuel system should be

inspected frequently and replaced if signs

of deterioration or leakage are found.

Inspect the fuel system each time you

refuel, each time you remove the engine

cover, and annually.

18 - Fuel and Oil

ADDITIVES

IMPORTANT: Only use fuel additives approved by

Bombardier

for your outboard. Use of other fuel ad-

ditives can result in poor performance or engine

damage.

Evinrude/Johnson

2+4

fuel conditioner will help

prevent gum and varnish deposits from forming in

fuel system components and will remove moisture

from the fuel system. It can be used continuously

and should be used during any period when your

engine is not being operated on a regular basis. Its

use will reduce spark plug fouling, fuel system icing,

and fuel system component deterioration.

FUEL/OIL RATIO

New Engine

During break-in, you must use a 50:1 (2% oil) fuel/

oil ratio in your fuel tank in addition to the operation

of the oil injection system. Refer to Break-In (10

hours).

Normal Operation

Your motor is equipped with an oil injection system

to automatically mix oil with fuel.

IMPORTANT: Operating this motor without the oil

injection system requires modification that must be

performed by your DEALER.

High Performance

During high performance operation you must use a

50:1 (2% oil) fuel/oil ratio in your fuel tank in addi-

tion to the operation of the oil injection system.

MIXING FUEL AND OIL

To provide your engine with extra oil, use the follow-

ing chart and these guidelines to mix oil with the en-

gine’s fuel. Otherwise, keeping oil in the oil tank is

all you need to do to satisfy the engine’s oiling re-

quirements.

Portable Tank

Above and below 32° F (0° C), add one gallon of fu-

el. Pour in required amount of oil. Add remaining fu-

el. Install filler cap and tip tank gently to distribute

oil.

Permanently Installed Tank

Above 32° F (0° C), pour oil slowly with the fuel as

tank is filled. Below 32° F (0° C), add one gallon of

fuel to a separate container. Pour in required

amount of oil. Install filler cap and tip container gen-

tly to distribute oil. Slowly pour oil/fuel mixture into

tank with fuel as tank is filled.
